EOIR has 35 years of experience providing advanced solutions in cloud
computing, big data analytics, advanced visualization, C4ISR,
spectrum-related information dominance, smart sensing, training and
simulation, and rapid prototyping. EOIR has approximately 400 employees
in 11 U.S. offices as well as client sites domestically and overseas. In
the last year, the Company has won prime positions on several large
contract vehicles including Technical Information Engineering Services
($995 million ceiling with U.S. Army CERDEC), Electromagnetic Maneuver
Warfare Command & Control ($800 million ceiling with the Office of Naval
Research), and Persistent Surveillance - Intelligence, Surveillance and
Reconnaissance Analytic Software ($250 million ceiling with the Army
Research Lab).

Michael Lustbader, a Managing Partner at Arlington, said, “As an early
mover in smart sensors, video analytics and directed energy research,
EOIR is well-positioned to address the country’s key technical
priorities. We plan to grow the company through complementary strategic
acquisitions to create a mid-sized, agile platform that is focused on
delivering differentiated solutions to the national security community.
Through a mix of organic and inorganic investments, EOIR will expand its
capabilities into new areas for broader support of the current customer
base, as well as bring EOIR’s deep technical expertise into new markets.”

Arlington’s investment in EOIR follows on the heels of recent
realizations of its investments in Novetta Solutions and Compusearch
Software Systems. Arlington remains one of the most active private
equity firms in the government sector, having completed greater than
twenty transactions over the past five years. Arlington’s current
investments include Endeavor Robotics (previously iRobot Defense &
Security), the world’s largest independent provider of ground-based
robots for use in the most dangerous and hostile environments;
MicroPact, a leading provider of case management and business process
management (BPM) software; and Quantum Spatial, a geospatial analytics
firm.

Peter Cannito, who has been elevated to CEO of EOIR concurrent with the
transaction, commented, “EOIR is pleased to be partnering with
Arlington, a firm with a long and successful history investing in our
sector. We’ve delivered substantial growth over the last several years,
and secured key large prime contracts with our customers throughout the
research and development community. Having the backing of Arlington will
only serve to accelerate our growth and help us to capitalize upon our
current and future opportunities.”

David Wodlinger, a Principal at Arlington added, “EOIR has a
distinguished history of providing advanced research and development,
engineering and design solutions that address our military and
intelligence agencies’ key technical challenges. EOIR’s ability to
deliver innovation to customers throughout a program’s lifecycle makes
it an ideal platform for Arlington as we seek to build a national
security platform that advances the community’s capabilities through
investments in research and development and proprietary technology.”

Dr. Joe Mackin, EOIR’s former CEO and ongoing member of the EOIR Board,
said “EOIR Technologies has been supporting our customers with the
highest standards of integrity, commitment and technical excellence for
over three decades. This ownership transition presents a variety of
exciting new opportunities for EOIR to continue our rapid growth through
increased investments in corporate infrastructure, internal research and
development and targeted new capabilities attained through strategic
acquisitions. I look forward to continuing to advise the company through
its next phase of growth and continuing to serve our customers.”

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
